My 2016 V275 Fresh Water Pump has stopped working.

I removed the 2 screws that holds the wood floor in place, but I could not get the panel to lift up. I'm not sure if it has some sealer holding it in place or if it is just wedged in, but it would not budge so I could access the pump. I'm concerned about damaging the wood floor if I try to pry it open.

Does anyone have any suggestions / tricks on how to lift up the panel without damaging it?

Thank You

I have the same boat and have lifted the wood floor off in the past with out any problem. I would try tapping a plastic puddy knife between the fiberglass step and the flooring. the flooring has four screws and is quite heavy.

I will try that out...

Thank you very much for the tip - should work great.

Have a good night!

Byron,

Your tip worked great - the rubber seals on the wood flooring had a tight grip, but the plastic puddy knife broke the seal without damaging the wood or fiberglass.

Thanks again,
Trevor
